Better to find another course!
Quite honestly, this was the most unhospitable golf complex I have visited in my golfing career. From the check in with the guy in the pro shop to the pace of play with four people and four carts for each group.
The pro shop was well stocked and about 300% higher than most. The help there was extremely rude and did not have one ounce of customer service. I would fire that guy if he was my employee. I think he must be a work camper or something, his name tag said he was from Wisconsin or somewhere like that.
The carts are old, and in dire need of repair. This course is flat and even at that the cart barley made it around the course. As I mentioned above, most foursomes in front of us all had four carts. Mostly husband and wife combos and to say the pace was slow is an understatement. To make matters worse, don't plan on ANYONE letting you play through. The group in front of us had three open holes in front of them and would not let anyone play through.
When I approached them, they simply ignored me, and told me to wait my turn like everyone else.
The course is moderatly easy, and greens were very long and very slow. Maintenance was just so-so. Flat course.
This is a golf course located in a trailer/rv park. Loaded with people 70+ on the golf course. If you play 18 holes plan on spending at least 6 horus.
If this was the only place I had to play golf, I would give up the game.
Better
Second time. Played the yellow tees (under my max of 6000 Yds). MUCH better for me. Still a LOT of water and gators!
Brutal
First time. Should have played from the yellow tees, not the whites. 6100 yds from the white, which is above my limit...(I'm 71 years old). Ponds EVERYWHERE, even in the middle of the fairways...greens were pretty good. Better than many I have played here in Florida. Lots of gator sightings too!
I will be back. But I will pay from the yellow tees!
Challenging but fun course.
It was my first time at this course and I was by myself ended up getting paired with two older guys who were super nice and guided me through most of the course. I really enjoyed it greens are great you got to really tap it in or it just keeps going. Tee boxes were kept up with and the food was great!
Going downhill
The course has gone from a 3 to a 2-2.5 because of the tee boxes and fairways. No grass in 25-30% of the fairways and at least 50% of teeboxes were a mess. The greens on the other hand were in very good condition.
Keep looking
Course was in terrible condition. Most of the holes have no grass. This is sad because it was once a very nice course. Don’t waste your money here. There are too many decent courses near by.
Wont be back
The tee boxs and fairways need to be redone. there is little to no grass in the fairways on most holes. tee boxes need grass and leveling. 48 dollars is alot of money for a course in this condition
Needs work
First, a twosome with one set of clubs between them should not be allowed at 7:15a. Suggestions… close tee boxes and reseed. A lot were just dirt. Many fairways had thin grass or just devoid of grass and majority of greens were being overtaken by weeds. This course needs work and for the public coming onto this course, better value elsewhere.
Silver Dollar
This course needs help. Good layout but needs more grass in the fairways. Bumpy greens.
s dollar
Group there are very friendly, starter was phenominal
